He says the survival of the European project is at stake.
French President Emmanuel Macron has warned about the risk of the “death of Schengen” over the coronavirus pandemic.
“What’s at stake is the survival of the European project,” he told 26 other European Union leaders in a conference call on Thursday, according to a French diplomat, Reuters reported. “The risk we are facing is the death of Schengen.”
Macron warned his fellow EU leaders that the coronavirus outbreak risked undoing the bloc’s central pillars such as its no-border zone if they failed to show solidarity in this crisis, Reuters reported.

Great idea Sir Foccusser….but…that would likely be considered racist since that appears to be the main characteristic instead of logic or security…
